Mushrooms Growers dig this packaging!
Because the Sustainable Produce Container is such a popular package with mushroom growers and mycologists, we've got a whole page here so all the info is in one place! Click on the size name you want to go to that order page or call Linda at 859-630-2694 for best shipping prices.
FEATURES
- 100% recyclable, biodegradable
- Cardboard is thicker than paper bags so mushrooms can't "eat" it as quickly
- Containers are sturdy enough to stack 3-6 layers tall
- Earth-themed vents for air flow
- Secure hinged lid latch
- Holds up under temperature transitions (same cardboard is used in beer bottle carriers)
- Containers fit in most master cartons
- Easy to hand assemble, some designs are reversible with white on one side, natural on the other
- Single and full color printing available for just 10,000 minimum (approximately a pallet)
- Ships flat saving space
- In high volume, containers are the same price as plastic and eliminate sticky labels
- Practically free machine container former available (small deposit, 3 year lease for high volumes)
- Mushrooms may dry out a bit sooner than in plastic but will never get slimy like old ones in plastic
- Containers need to be hand-formed but we also have available a machine former for larger volume growers
- Sizes do not hold exactly the same amount as current grocery store 8 oz mounded plastic tubs but this gives you an opportunity to resize, rebrand and remarket at a better price per pound.
